Changes since 1.6.11

Highlights

Resources

• Compose Multiplatform resources are stored in the android assets now. This fixes Android Studio Preview and cases such as a rendering resource files in WebViews or Media Players

Navigation

• Shared Element Transitions
• Safe Args in Navigation Compose

Web

• skiko.js is redundant in case of K/Wasm Compose Multiplatform for web applications and it can be removed from index.html files to not load redundant files. skiko.js will be removed from the k/wasm distribution in the future releases. skiko.js is still needed in case of K/JS Compose Multiplatform for web apps

Breaking changes

iOS

• UIKitView and UIKitViewController in package androidx.compose.ui.interop are deprecated. New API are mentioned in deprecation message. Deprecated invocations should work fine unless custom onResize is used, it is disallowed now and will print a warning.
• Actual of expected InteropView on iOS is UIResponder now instead of UIView. It's the first common ancestor for UIViewController and UIView, both of which can be integrated using iOS interop APIs
• The app will crash by default, if CADisableMinimumFrameDurationOnPhone is not set to true in Info.plist. Use newly added ComposeUIViewControllerConfiguration.enforceStrictPlistSanityCheck to opt-out of this behavior

Desktop

• Modifier.onExternalDrag has been deprecated in favor of the new Modifier.dragAndDropTarget

Android

• Minimal supported AGP raised to 8.1.0

Resources

• Deprecate resources in compose.ui in favour of the new resource library

Features

Multiple Platforms

• The clickable modifier now responds to NumPadEnter and Spacebar, too, in addition to Enter
• LocalLifecycleOwner moved from Compose UI to lifecycle-runtime-compose so that its Compose-based helper APIs can be used outside of Compose UI
• Skia is updated to m126
• Commonized org.jetbrains.compose.material3:material3-window-size-class module
• Commonized org.jetbrains.compose.material3.adaptive:adaptive* modules
• New multiplatform module "material-navigation" (in beta status)
• material3-adaptive-navigation-suite is multiplatform now
• Support Kotlin 1.9.25

iOS

• Initial iOS floating cursor support
• Added accessibilityEnabled: Boolean = true argument to UIKitView and UIKitViewController
• preferredStatusBarStyle, preferredStatysBarAnimation and prefersStatusBarHidden are added to ComposeUIViewControllerDelegate to allow status bar appearance modification
• Improvements in touches processing to detect if touches were meant to be delivered to interop views, or should be processed by Compose
• New UIKitView and UIKitViewController API in package androidx.compose.ui.viewinterop. Support of onReset to reuse the interop composable emitted node and avoid excessive native views reallocations, fine-grain touches strategy control (cooperative with explicit time delay, non-cooperative where no touches are received by Compose, ignoring touches)
• Basic support for BasicTextField(TextFieldState, ...) on iOS

Desktop

• Add constructor with RenderSettings to ComposePanel. Added a class RenderSettings with val isVsyncEnabled: Boolean?. When set to true gives a hint to renderer implementation of the particular ComposePanel to reduce the latency between the input and visual changes in exchange for possible screen tearing
• Add public moveEnabled and positionPercentage setters in SplitPaneState
• Implemented Drag-and-Drop from AOSP: Modifier.dragAndDropSource and Modifier.dragAndDropTarget
• Added support for input methods (languages such as Chinese, Korean, Arabic) to BasicTextField(TextFieldState, ...)
• Add dynamic Drag&Drop target indication (🚫 icon under cursor if currently there is no valid drop target under it)
• The thickness of border resizers in undecorated windows and dialogs can now be controlled by passing a new decoration argument

Resources

• Speed resources web rendering up by the reading a cached value instantly
• If there is no resource with suitable density, use resource with the most suitable density, otherwise use default (similar to the Android logic)
• Add a customization for resources directories. Now it is possible to use e.g downloaded resources
• Now the gradle plugin generates resources map to find a resource by a string ID
• To avoid constant reading raw font bytes on each Font usage on non-android targets, there was added the font cache. Android has own font cache inside the platform implementation
• Added utility functions to decode Bitmap ByteArray as ImageVector and XML ByteArray as ImageVector in the common code and SVG ByteArray as Painter in the non-android code
• Added support of test resources in Compose Multiplatform projects
• Added support of multi-module resources in JVM-only projects

Gradle Plugin

• New compose.material3AdaptiveNavigationSuite shortcut in the gradle plugin

Fixes

Multiple Platforms

• Fix "ComposePanel. Focus moves to child after focusing/unfocusing the main window"
• Don't show code completion for non-existenst API in commonMain that fails on Android with NoSuchMethodException
• Fix order of interop elements in some cases
• Fixed Popup jerking during ripple effect animation
• Fix applying ShaderBrush to part of AnnotatedString
• Fix text brush animation and optimized updating some visual text properties (applying time is reduced up to 40%)
• Fix initial cursor position in the empty TextField with explicitly set TextAlignment
• Fix focus for editable TextField inside ExposedDropdownMenuBox
• Fix changing FontRenderingSettings is not reflected until composition restarts

iOS

• Pressing directional keys on a physical keyboard connected to iOS device doesn't cause a crash
• Dismissing popup or dialogue within a very short timespan after its creation doesn't cause a crash
• Fix missing invalidations during native view resize
• Fixed a memory spike when continuously resizing the ComposeUIViewController (such as when used in modal sheet presentation context with different detents)
• visibility of selection handles in single-line textfields with LTR + RTL text in iOS
• Interop views are now correctly clipped when their measured clipped and unclipped bounding boxes don't match
• Touches inside interop views are not exclusive to them and are processed on Compose side as well.
• Fix material3.ModalBottomSheet safe area usage
• Fix hiding interop element during quick scroll
• Fixed the keyboard appearing when selecting from SelectionContainer
• Fix status bar padding on iPad devices
• VoiceOver doesn't allow to perform a11y actions (scrolling, activate, customActions) when disabled() semantics is present in affected element
• Fix frame drops when dragging scrollable content on iOS
• A new approach to implementation of platformLayers. Now extra layers (such as Dialogs and Popups) drawing is merged into a single screen size canvas. No jittering and crashes should happen with those anymore.
• Dialogs and Popups now have their insets calculated correctly even when the frame of ComposeUIViewController spawning them doesn't intersect any safe areas
• Fix offset issues with keyboard and TextField
• Fix "Incorrect imePadding and high cpu usage when repeatedly opening and closing Keyboard on iOS"
• Fix "Selection handlers in wrong positions in a fullscreen TextField"
• Fix keyboard closing while scrolling content with Text Fields
• Fix "UriHandler.openUri no longer works on iOS 18"

Desktop

• Fix possible UninitializedPropertyAccessException in desktopTest
• Fixed ComposePanel.requestFocus(), making it correctly assign focus to the first focusable child
• When using ComposePanel inside a Swing application on macOS, VoiceOver will now correctly go into the ComposePanel when traversing accessible elements

• Allow preloading the fallback fonts. This enables the usage of emojis and other unicode characters without manually composing the Text with AnnotatedString
• Make sure the web app distribution doesn't contain a duplicate skiko.wasm
• Prevent a crash on mobile web when selecting some text in SelectionContainer

Resources

• Delete contextClassLoader usage on JVM targets
• Create an empty resource dir with "podspec" task instead "podInstall"
